Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency Treatment Market Size

The global exocrine pancreatic insufficiency treatment market size was valued at around USD 2.7 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at 5.6% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) treatment refers to the medical and dietary management strategies used to address the deficiency of exocrine pancreatic enzymes, which are crucial for the digestion and absorption of nutrients. EPI treatment aims to alleviate symptoms, improve nutrient absorption, and enhance the overall quality of life for affected individuals.

 

The rising prevalence of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and cystic fibrosis (CF) is a key catalyst for the exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) treatment market, as both conditions severely impair pancreatic function, leading to enzyme deficiencies and digestion issues. For instance, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation reports that nearly 40,000 children and adults in the U.S. are living with CF, with an estimated 105,000 individuals diagnosed across 94 countries. CF affects people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds, necessitating long-term treatment through pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT). Therefore, as the prevalence of these conditions increases, so does the demand for effective treatment options such as PERT to manage digestive health.
 

Furthermore, advancements in diagnostic techniques for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) are significantly enhancing the detection of the condition, leading to more timely and effective treatment. Recent research has focused on identifying specific biomarkers to improve the accuracy of pancreatic function assessments. A key biomarker, fecal elastase-1, is commonly used to evaluate exocrine function, with low levels in stool samples serving as a strong indicator of pancreatic insufficiency. This improved diagnostic precision is essential for the accurate diagnosis and management of EPI, stimulating market growth.
